Abstract<br />

The themes developed in the Research Unit of the Politecnico di<br />

Milano concern the material culture of the territory, interpreted as<br />

part of a more general «archeology of memory» that affects all ages<br />

with specific reference to the theoretical concept of «archeology of<br />

knowledge» developed by Michel Foucault in his well known writings.<br />

A culture that is identified in different aspects of archaeological heritage,<br />

here referred to a wider sense, from antiquity to the present age,<br />

which is the subject of attention in a dynamic phenomenology of<br />

transformations. An attitude that expresses a careful attention to the<br />

preservation and understanding of a multifaceted memory and identity,<br />

and to the recognition of the role of the many archaeologies in<br />

the realization of future social assets. This can be accomplished by a<br />

museographical and cultural redesign of those spaces and those artifacts<br />

cut off the circuit of production. The institution of the museum<br />

serves as a fertile strategy, as a promoter of a sensitive and careful design<br />

in compartments in which the local historical and architectural<br />

values deserve to be interpreted as cognitive moments of our way of<br />

life and to live and inhabit the environment that surrounds us.<br />
